体育运动是人特有的生物本能，这种本能是天赋的。脑科学家洪兰教授曾说过，激活孩子大脑最好的方式，首先就是运动。因为运动的时候，大脑会自动分泌多巴胺、血清素和正肾上腺素，这些神经传导物质都跟学习与记忆有关。走近上海德闳国际学校全人教育中的体育教与学！
西方近代教育理论奠基者夸美纽斯指出，人的运动是自然的需要，“自然因为常动，所以才有结果，才变强健”。
所以在德闳的全人教育设计中，体育运动是重要的组成部分，我们希望通过体育项目培养学生多种能力的均衡发展，在持续不断的练习中增强体魄，在激动人心的比赛中培养合作、沟通、领导力等技能，更好地适应全球化发展。
日常教学内容
德闳的体育教学，不仅仅是学生在运动场上进行的体育活动，更是师生共同参与、互动的教学与活动。老师会教授学生基础的理论知识，讲解战术，通过示范教学，帮助他们建立基本的运动认知，以便更好地跟实际的体育运动相结合。一学期内，通过四个单元（每单元4周左右）的学习，不同年级的学生会接触到游泳、球类、健身操等等不同类型的运动，教学内容涵盖各项运动的技能和知识点。
例如在本学年的“健身”单元中，我们会根据学生在不同年龄段体能发展的需要而设计教学内容。教程纲要涵盖了人体机能构造的认识、健康生活习惯的培养、提高心肺功能的有氧运动、拉伸柔韧度的动作、肌肉力量的训练和耐力训练等。同学们通过丰富多彩的运动项目和以教学目标为本的游戏，得到了全方位的锻炼。
又比如球类的单元，我们并不会让小学部的同学们局限于一项球类运动，而是让他们接触和体验不同的球类运动，如篮球、足球、手球等。通过老师的引导和启蒙训练，提高他们的身体素质，培养基本的运动习惯。而针对中学部的同学，我们会在不同的单元选定一个球类，通过完整的学习，强化该球类的学习方法和技巧。通过分组教学和练习，我们让每一位学生在课堂中得到挑战和提升。在整个过程中，老师也会不断挖掘学生的运动潜能，注重培养学生的团队合作、组织协调等等能力。
我们会持续追踪同学们的表现和进步，对于在某些运动中暂时遇到困难的学生，体育老师会辅助他们制定自己的成长计划，给与更细致的指导；对于已经达标的学生，体育老师则会增设挑战项目，以更好地支持他们的学习和成长。
拓展课程和校内外比赛
除了日常的体育教学，德闳还提供 “启迪”课，为同学们接触体育运动提供更多的机会。同学们可以接触、学习并参与到更多的运动中，球类运动、跆拳道、武术、高尔夫、击剑、游泳、健身操、冥想等等运动都包含在内。
为了保持同学们对于运动的热情，学校会定期组织各类体育活动（《学院运动会 ＊ 运动，到底带给了孩子什么？》），鼓励同学们参加。其中最盛大的便是我们与姐妹学校一同参与的奥林匹亚盛会（《德闳学生参加奥林匹亚盛会》），这项大型的体育和艺术竞赛每四年举行一次。

冬季奥运会
通过在赛场上的拼搏，激发同学们对于运动的热爱。另外学校还会通过选拔组建校队，带领学生参与校外的比赛，体验有关领导力（《培养学生的领导力 | 每一次组织活动，都是提升自己的机会》）、韧性和如何挑战自我极限的学习，通过运动建立起通往世界的桥梁。
师资和运动设施
德闳对于运动的重视，不仅体现在课程设置上，师资配备和运动设施也同样是精心安排。
体育部的中外教老师都具备丰富的教学经验，对于如何激发学生的运动热情都有独到的理解。今年，我们的体育组负责老师Paul Ifrim也将带领大家开展丰富多彩的体育活动。
- Paul Ifrim 老师-
曾在英国、阿联酋和中国教授体育运动，对不同国家的体育教育有着自己丰富的经验；
曾经是一名专业的雪橇运动员，参加过2010年加拿大温哥华冬奥会。
他对于运动的热爱毋庸置疑，相信他对运动的热情也将感染我们的同学们。他将和我们所有体育组的老师一起，在教学内容上进行优化和提升，为同学们带来更好、更专业的体育教育。
为了配合老师们的专业教学，德闳校园内配备了50米泳道的国际泳联标准泳池、三个标准篮球场大小的室内体育馆、室外足球场等，为学生提供了先进的设施设备，保证同学们获得专业的、安全的体育教育。

在德闳，体育，不只是简单的运动，它更是一种意志力教育、协作教育和规则教育，其目的是帮助我们的学生不断超越自我，磨练永不言弃的意志，成长为未来社会需要的人才。

Physical Education is an essential part of the outstanding holistic curriculum we offer at Dehong Shanghai. We hope to help students learn more skills through a wide range of sports such as teamwork, communication and leadership skills, and improve their physical strength through continuous practice.
Daily P.E. Classes
The PE programme at Dehong is not just about students playing sports, but about the teaching and interaction between teachers and students. Students will be taught about basic theoretical knowledge and tactical explanations, and through demonstrations, we will help students build up fundamental sports knowledge to be better applied in practice. In one semester, through four units (about 4 weeks for each unit), students in different grades will be exposed to different types of sports such as swimming, ball games, aerobics, etc. Teaching content will cover the skills and essential knowledge.
One of the examples is the unit on ball games. We do not limit our Elementary School students to one ball game, instead we provide the opportunity for them to try different ball games, such as basketball, soccer, handball, etc. Through guidance and initiation training, we aim to improve their physical fitness and develop basic sports habits. And for the students in our Secondary School, we will select a ball for each unit and reinforce the learning methods and skills through deep learning. And by teaching and practicing in groups, students will get improved quickly. Throughout the process, our teachers continue to explore the athletic potential of the students.
Moreover, we will continue to track the performance and progress of each student. For students who are temporarily struggling in certain sports, teachers will assist students in developing their own growth plans and offer more detailed guidance; for students who have already met the standards, we will set up challenges to better support their learning and development.
Enrichment Programme and Competitions
In addition to the daily physical education, Dehong also offers “QiDi” programme, which provides more opportunities for students to get close to various sports.
Students could participate in a wide range of sports, including taekwondo, martial arts, golf, fencing, swimming, calisthenics, meditation, and ball games, etc.
To keep the students’ enthusiasm for sports, we will organize sports events (House Sports Competition) with our sister schools and encourage students to take part. One of the most important events is the Dulwich Olympiad (Dehong Students Participated in the Dulwich Olympiad), a large-scale sports and art competition which takes place every four years.
Through competitions, students are inspired to play sports. In addition, we help build bridges to broader community by leading school sports team to participate in-and-off-campus competitions, and letting our students experience leadership (Cultivating Student Leadership), resilience, and push themselves to their limits.
P.E. Department and Facilities
The importance of Physical Education is not only reflected in our teaching content, but also in the teaching staff and the related sports facilities.
Both our Expat and Chinese teachers are all experienced and have a deep understanding of how to motivate students. This year, we also have welcomed our Director of Sport, Mr. Paul Ifrim.
- Mr. Paul Ifrim -
Rich teaching experience in the UK, UAE, and China with extensive experience in physical education system of different countries.
Former professional Luge athlete and competed at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada.
Mr. Ifrim's love for sports is undeniable, and we believe his passion for sports will infect our students as well. He will work with PE team to improve the teaching and bring better and more professional physical education to our students.
In addition, our campus is equipped with a FINA standard swimming pool with 50m lanes and three standard basketball court-sized indoor gymnasiums and outdoor football court, providing advanced facilities and equipment to ensure students could have professional and safe environment here.
At Dehong Shanghai, physical education is not just about sports, it is an education of willpower, collaboration, and disciplines. The goal is to help our students to reach beyond themselves, to sharpen their will to stick to goals, and to grow up to be the talents that society needs in the future.
We will continue to cover more details about Dehong PE programme, including:
What is the difference between Elementary School and Secondary School PE learning and the connection?
How we implement PE teaching and differentiation learning?
How would students selected to be one of the sports team?
Any related interesting students stories?
